- Time of past OR future Camino
- 2013 CF then a few more. Plan May 24 Primitivo
I've just returned from the San Salvador/Primitivo and have got Giardia from drinking untreated Water. I filled a bottle in Tineo as the Bar owner said it was good water/better than his Tap. There has been a lot of very heavy rain and just like here in Ireland sometimes the Tap water is not safe to drink. In future I will only buy Bottled water or carry a Filter type fillable bottle. I was lucky that I was able to walk most days and it did not entirely ruin my Camino. I heard some other Pilgrims were sick also. perhaps not related to water.
